About
Tyrianna has been an academic advisor since 2018, bringing a wealth of experience from both large public institutions and smaller colleges. Her advising philosophy involves helping students "put the puzzle pieces together" by guiding them through complex academic paths with empathy, clarity, and a collaborative spirit. Furthermore, she strives to empower students to see the bigger picture while navigating the details that lead to their success.
Outside of advising, Tyrianna is a certified AFAA/NASM group fitness instructor. She believes in the importance of all forms of wellness, especially mental, physical, and spiritual. A proud family-oriented individual who loves to laugh, she brings warmth and authenticity to every student and colleague interaction. Tyrianna creates a welcoming space for growth, reflection, and achievement. Catch her binge-watching a crime drama, tending to her plant babies, or making something crafty when she's not working hard. :)
